# it breaks the heart

Breaking a person's heart represents overwhelming that person with sadness. AT: "it causes intense sadness" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]])

# a longing fulfilled is a tree of life

# tree of life

"a tree that gives life" or "a tree whose fruit sustains life." See how you translated this in [Proverbs 3:18](../03/17.md).
